Over Eleven Centuries of Service 


Thursday, 3 February, was a red 
letter day in the University’s calendar. 
On that day, at the Faculty Club, the 
Board of Governors honored those 
people who have served our institution 
for twenty-five, thirty, thirty-five, and, 
for the very first time in the life of the 
University, forty years. Membership 
in the “forty year club” this year was 
limited to people who graduated from 
The University of Alberta with 
engineering degrees and who came on 
staff in 1942. In other words, the 
“forty year club” comprised former 
Dean of Engineering, George Ford, 
and current Vice-President (Facilities 
and Services), Ron Phillips. 

In all, forty academic and 
non-academic staff were honored at 
the wine and cheese reception. Of 
those, twenty-eight were able to 
attend along with their guests. 
Lamentably, one person who had 
served the University for twenty-five 


years, Michael Tychnowicz of 
Dispatch Distribution, died in late 
December. Thus a special welcome 
was made to his wife Alice and son 
Walter, who proudly accepted the 
University’s expression of gratitude. 

As President Horowitz pointed out, 
it is not only the staff member who 
serves the University but also the 
family that gives that person 
encouragement and support. 

The names of the people honored on 
3 February are given below. In total, 
they represent 1,140 years of 
dedication and commitment.

More McCalla Professorships Awarded 


Question: What do Bill Ayer, Gordon 
Rostoker, and Larry Wang have in 
common? Their positions as Professors 
in the Faculty of Science? Yes, 
indeed. But more than that; for they 
are all recent recipients of a 
prestigious McCalla Research 
Professorship, funded by the 
University’s Endowment Fund for the 
Future and intended to provide release 
from normal teaching and 
administrative duties in order to 
provide for “uninterrupted 
concentration” on various research 
endeavors. 

W.A. Ayer, Professor of Chemistry, 
will use the release time provided him 
under the terms of the McCalla to 
“most effectively direct” a major 
research effort currently looking into 
fungal diseases in plants. His research 
group is a large one (eleven graduate 
students, four post-doctoral fellows 
and a research associate) and the 
research work deals mainly with the 


chemistry of plant disease causing 
fungi, and the chemistry of fungi 
which are antagonistic to disease 
causing fungi. “In many fungal 
diseases of plants,” explains Dr. Ayer, 
“the plant dies because of a failure of 
the water conducting system. It is my 
hypothesis that this failure is 
chemically induced, and one major 
objective of the research is to 
determine what compounds cause this 
problem, that is, is there a common 
chemical factor?” 

His research projects will lead him 
(among other places) from the 
foothills of Alberta (and a 
collaborative project with Y. 
Hiratsuka and J.P. Tewari which 
looks at the blue stain fungi, a serious 
disease in the Alberta pine tree) to 
Central and South America (where, 
with his colleagues, he will examine 
the chemistry and biology of the 
fungus mycena citricolor, a serious 
disease in coffee trees of the area). 


Born on the east coast of Canada 
and a graduate of the University of 
New Brunswick (BSc 1953; PhD 
1956), Dr. Ayer held a Post-Doctoral 
Fellowship at Harvard University 
before coming to this University in 
1958. Chairman of the Division of 
Organic Chemistry in 1973-74 and 
Editor (Organic) of the Canadian 
Journal of Chemistry since 1976, Dr. 
Ayer has published more than 100 
scholarly papers. 

The McCalla Professorship 
awarded to Gordon Rostoker, 
Professor of Physics, will give him 
“sufficient research time to effectively 
exploit a data base built up over the 
acquisition phase of the International 
Magnetospheric Study (IMS).” 
During the three-year International 
Magnetospheric Study (1976-1979), 
scientists from more than forty 
countries operated their equipment in 
a coordinated fashion as a part on an 
ongoing study of the nature of the

Orchesis is the creative dance group 
of The University of Alberta. It was 
founded in 1965 by Movement 
Analysis Professor Dorothy Harris 
and eight of her students, and has 
presented either a full theatre 
production or a studio production of 
original works annually. It is 
co-sponsored by the Faculty of 
Physical Education and Recreation 
and the Students’ Union, and this year 
is under the co-direction of Ruth 
Bartman, Dorothy Harris, and 
Marsha Padfield.O 


MPM Program Receives Scholarship Support 


The Edmonton Regional Institute of 
Public Administration of Canada 
(IPAC) recently made a generous 
offer of scholarship support in the 
amount of $500 annually to the 
Master of Public Management 
program in the Faculty of Business. 
The IPAC/MPM Scholarship will be 
awarded on the basis of high academic 


standing to a graduate student 
entering the second year of the MPM 
program. 

T.P. Griffin, IPAC’s Co-Chairman 
of the Edmonton Regional Group, 
presented the letter of commitment to 
Allan Warrack, Director of the MPM 
program. 


solar-terrestrial interaction. Dr. 
Rostoker and his colleagues recorded 
and prepared for analysis 
magnetometer and riometer data from 
an array of seven observatories in 
Alberta and the Northwest 
Territories. The result of the IMS is 
that scientists like Dr. Rostoker have 
gained access to the data collected 
across North America. Further, close 
links that developed during the study 
have led to the possibility of carrying 
out several collaborative research 
efforts. It is Dr. Rostoker’s intention 
to concentrate on three closely linked 


’ areas of research: (1) an intensive 


study of the global response of the 
earth’s magnetosphere to fluctuations 
in the interplanetary plasma and fields 
to more thoroughly document his 
contention that sudden decreases in 
the energy input lead to explosive 
releases of stored energy; (2) 
exploitation of the International 
Magnetospheric Study (1976-1979) 
global data base with a view to tracing 
the energy transport processes 
whereby energy from the solar wind 
which has penetrated into the outer 
regions of the magnetosphere (that is, 
the boundary level) is converted to 
electromagnetic energy and 
subsequently degraded to heat in the 
upper atmosphere; and (3) correlative 
studies of satellite and ground-based 
magnetometer data with an emphasis 
on projects which require the merging 
of large data bases. According to Dr. 
Rostoker, these projects “require 
concentrated efforts for significant 
intervals of time. The McCalla 
Professorship provides such a 
possibility.” 

Dr. Rostoker is a graduate of the 
University of Toronto (BSc 1962; MA 
1963) and the University of British 
Columbia (PhD 1966). After a term 
as a National Research Council of 
Canada Overseas Post-Doctoral 
Fellow at the Royal Institute of 
Technology in Stockholm, Sweden, he 
came to The University of Alberta in 
1968. Dr. Rostoker was the 1979 
recipient of the E.W.R. Steacie 
Memorial Prize, awarded each year to 
a researcher under the age of forty 
who has made outstanding 
contributions to the field of science in 
Canada. 

The third member of the Faculty of 
Science to receive a 1983-84 McCalla 


Professorship is Lawrence Wang, 
Professor of Zoology. A graduate of 
the National Taiwan Normal 
University (BSc 1963), Rice 
University (MSc 1967), and Cornell 
University (PhD 1970), Dr. Wang 
joined The University of Alberta 
Department of Zoology in 1970. 
Internationally recognized for his 
research into both hibernation and 
hypothermia, he will use the 
additional research time afforded him 
through the McCalla to expand the 
scope and depth of his current 
research. “Because of the geographic 
locations of Alberta and Canada, 
there is a constant threat of cold,” he 
states in outlining his proposed 
research endeavor. “To understand 
how to prevent the onset of 
hypothermia and how to survive in 
hypothermia are both relevant and 
essential.” 

To that end, Dr. Wang has set 
himself a two-fold research goal: (1) 
to provide an understanding of 
physiological homeostasis under 
profound hypothermia; and (2) to 
identify the physiological mechanisms 
which limit maximum heat 
production. Specifically, he hopes to 
document the physiological 
manifestation of drug-induced

supra-maximal heat production under 
acute, severe cold exposure. His recent 
discovery that, in rats, a single 
injection of the drug aminophylline 
elicits a marked increase in heat 
production far beyound that typically 
observed in rats under severe cold, has 
convinced Dr. Wang to extend the 
research project to include human 
subjects. “Although animal research 
may not always lead to biomedical 
advancement, there are reasons for 
optimism in this particular case,” 
states Dr. Wang. “Rats and humans 
share similar muscle fiber types and 
both use shivering for heat production 
during cold exposure. The proposed 
project seems to possess both the 
potential and promise to warrant an 
expeditious and uninterrupted 
research effort,” he continues. “The 
McCalla Professorship will most 
certainly provide the opportunity of 
achieving such an endeavor.” 

McCalla Professorships were 
established in November 1980 as a 
category of The University of Alberta 
Endowment Fund for the Future. Ten 
to fifteen of the prestigious awards are 
given out annually, providing each 
recipient with a nine-month special 
leave designed for research 
purposes.O

Hockey Promotion Nights 


On 25 and 26 February the Golden 
Bear Hockey team will end the 
1982-83 regular season by hosting the 
UBC Thunderbirds. Each game will 
start at 7:30 p.m. in Varsity Arena. 

In addition to seeing top flight 
hockey, fans will be able to win prizes 
at each game. The Department of 
Athletic Services has organized two 
promotions in conjunction with local 
business firms. On 25 February the 
Golden Bears will host Coca-Cola 
Night. The first 500 fans through the 
gates will receive a Coca-Cola 


baseball cap and every fan has a 
chance to win various door prizes 
throughout the course of the game. 

Work Wearhouse Night will unfold 
on 26 February. Every fan in 
attendance has a chance to win a $250 
gift certificate compliments of the 
Work Wearhouse as well as several 
other gift certificates. 

So plan to attend Varsity Arena on 
25 and 26 February and cheer the 
Golden Bears to victory. You could 
also be a winner. 


Stanley Gordon Geldart 1919 - 1983 


Stanley Gordon Geldart, Professor of 
Dentistry and a former MLA for the 
Province of Alberta, died on 23 
January 1983. 

Dr. Geldart was born in Camrose, 
attended Victoria High School in 
Edmonton, and subsequently The 
University of Alberta. 

After three years of study in the 
pharmacy program, he enlisted in the 
Royal Canadian Army when war

broke out in 1939. 

During a military career that lasted 
ten years, Dr. Geldart attained the 
rank of lieutenant-colonel in the Royal 
Canadian Artillery. He was active in 
the militia for twenty years on 
returning to Canada. 

He obtained his Dentistry degree in 
1952. After five years in private 
practice, Dr. Geldart joined the 
Faculty of Dentistry at this University 
in 1958. He obtained the Master of 
Public Health degree from the 
University of Michigan in 1962 
following a year’s study leave spent at 
Ann Arbor. He served as Chairman of 
the Department of Preventive and 
Community Dentistry between 1968 
and 1977. 

Dr. Geldart was a member of the 
Alberta Legislature from 1963 to 
1967, representing Edmonton West 
for the Social Credit Party. 

One of his most notable professional 
achievements was the development of 
the Mobile Dental Clinic in the 
Faculty of Dentistry. Started in 1974, 
the clinic provides northern Alberta 
communities with dental services they 
otherwise would not have. 

The program is unique, and allows 
fourth-year dentistry students to work 
in rural areas under faculty 
supervision. The Alberta government 
has expanded the program 
significantly since its inception. He 
was also instrumental in introducing 
enabling legislation for the 
fluoridation of public water supplies in 
the Province of Alberta. 

He is survived by his wife and seven 
children.O
